Jennifer Lopez certainly looked solemn in her plain ensemble as she took to the shops on Thursday for a spot of Christmas shopping

She may be 44 years-old, but Jennifer Lopez never shies away from showing off her body, and is usually seen performing on stage in her favoured flesh-coloured leotard.
But on Thursday, it seemed that Jenny had come over all shy as she walked around the block.
The singer was seen doing some Christmas shopping at Ralph Lauren in Beverly Hills wearing flat black brogues and practical slacks.

Perhaps the only sign for fans that it was the real J-Lo, was her famous derriere that looked shapely in the tight-fitting trousers.
Not pictured with the star during the shopping trip, was her beau Casper Smart.
Casper, who is also Jennifer's choreographer, recently revealed that he and Jen have been too busy for romantic dates recently, but insists he and the 44-year-old star are still having "fun" together.

What she's used to! J-Lo, pictured here in December last year, is known for her daring stage wear, and is a huge fan of flesh-coloured leotards

The 24-year-old dancer told People.com before his girlfriend's tribute to the late queen of salsa Celia Cruz at the American Music Awards in Los Angeles last month: 'Rehearsal is date night. We're in rehearsal until 3 a.m. every morning.'
He added: 'Rehearsal is so fun. Learning a special move she does in the show was fun.'
Jennifer, who has five-year-old twins, Emme and Max, with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony, is also currently filming The Boy Next Door but Casper supports her on set so they can spend as much quality time together as possible.

Posh would approve: J-Lo looked as though she was taking a few style notes from Victoria Beckham as she went Christmas shopping in LA on Thursday

Not her usual get-up: Despite being 44-years-old, Jennifer doesn't shy away from stripping off when she's performing on stage

He said: 'She's filming a movie, so she would come to rehearsal after. So I'd be there like 12 hours and she would shoot like 12 hours [on] the movie and then come to us.'
A source previously claimed that the On The Floor singer is planning to dump her backing dancer beau because the "spark" has disappeared from their two-year relationship.
The insider said: 'Jennifer is pretty private about the relationship, but she's been hinting that the spark is gone. She's having a hard time ignoring the fact her head has been telling her for a while that this thing with Casper isn't forever. And now her heart's saying the same thing.
'She enjoyed the relationship for what it is, but now that giddiness has turned to sadness.'

Her new trend? J-Lo was later spotted in a similarly uninspiring outfit as she arrived at Craigs restaurant in Beverly Hills
